Jun 08, 2012

The one area where Lions TE Brandon Pettigrew ranks down the list among tight ends is yards per catch. His 9.4-yard average last year ranked 29 among the 30 tight ends who had 30 or more catches.

"Some of them really separate themselves,” Pettigrew said of the NFL’s tight end class. “If you’re going to be a top tight end in this league, that’s what you’ve got to do, is separate yourself."

“As far as catches and stuff, I’m there. Some guys get a lot of YAC (yards after the catch). The yardage separation is there. I’ve got to put myself there and start making that big play.”

Fantasy Impact:

Pettigrew saw a ton of targets last year which drove his value as a fantasy TE1, but as Titus Young and Ryan Broyles earn more looks, Pettigrew's targets will likely fall, hurting his upside. He's still a decent TE1 in PPR, but less so in standard formats.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker listed as DNP; RB Zach Carbonnet full

Adam Schefter on X

Seahawks listed RB Kenneth Walker III as a Did Not Practice today while RB Zach Charbonnet was upgraded to full practice ahead of Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker is dealing with an ankle injury and as we get closer to Thursday his status really seems to be in doubt. Charbonnet would be the team's lead back and looks to be good to go despite dealing with an elbow injury. He'd once again be a great option if Walker is unable to go.

Charger RBs Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins listed as limited

Gus Edwards is listed as a limited participant due to an ankle injury. Edwards ran 14 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday’s win over the Broncos.

J.K. Dobbins (knee) was also limited in his first appearance on the injury report since being designated for return from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said if Dobbins is going to play against the Patriots, the Chargers will have to activate him by Friday. It could be a tricky situation depending on each back's status. Owners will want to pay close attention to this situation leading up to game time.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow, WR Tee Higgins listed as limited

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow told reporters on Tuesday that he feels like he’s totally past his right wrist injury, but it still landed him on the team’s injury report.

Burrow was listed as limited due to the wrist and his knee

Wide receiver Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) was listed as limited as well,

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Burrow's injury shouldn’t create much cause for concern about his availability against the Broncos on Saturday since he was listed as limited all of last week before playing without issue in the team’s win over the Browns. Burrow added there are still things he does to help with it but he's pretty much past it. The story added Higgins also played without incident last Sunday after being on the report all week.
